Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: hci_aml: validate firmware segment lengths aml_download_firmware() reads two lengths from the firmware header and uses them to build pointers before checking that the header and segment data are present. A truncated or inconsistent firmware image can make the driver read past firmware->data while constructing TCI commands. Reject images shorter than the header and ensure that the ICCM and DCCM ranges fit within the loaded firmware before downloading either segment.

No credits in the CNA record.
Variant candidates
Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.
No nightly-computed relations.
Chain candidates
An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
